About this map

Ashland serves as the focal point of this Benton County survey, centered around the Benton County Courthouse and the local Ashland Cent school. The town's grid is defined by streets such as Main St, Walnut St, and Ripley Ave, while the surrounding landscape is heavily influenced by the presence of the Holly Springs National Forest. To the west, the residential community of Snow Lake Shores borders the waters of Snow Creek, contrasting with the more dispersed rural layout of the forest lands.

Waterways like Big Snow Creek, Tubby Creek, and the Tippah River drain the terrain, which rises to local heights at Hamer Hill and Clemmer Hill. For genealogical researchers, the map is particularly dense with burial sites, ranging from the Bethlehem Cem in the northeast to the Ayers Cem / Houston Cem in the south. The presence of the John Farese Airpark reflects the modern infrastructure integrated into this traditional Mississippi landscape.
